The new movie’s director was left a tad confused by the public outcry from fans of the movie about its movie’s soundtrack and the suggestion that it wouldn’t include the film’s original songs – like Reflection. Who doesn’t love Reflection?

Now Niki Caro has shut down further speculation over the movie’s soundtrack, or lack of, as she said: ‘I don’t know where that’s come from. We’ve never talked about songs, and no decision has been made.’

That settles that.

In all fairness, Disney fans were left feeling put out after an interview with Moviefone was published last week, with Caro stating: ‘From what I understand, no songs right now.’

That’s fairly simple – but taken out of context and what have you got? People just hearing the ‘no songs’ bit.

It would appear that there’s still a lot of work to be done on the movie and the soundtrack is not on the radar just yet.

The Los Angeles Times further reports that the studios are open to music especially following the incredible success of Beauty and the Beast.

Disney fans also got their knickers in a twist after Li Shang – Mulan’s love interest – won’t have a role in the new film. It’s thought that he could be replaced with the new character, who will be Mulan’s rival.

In an interview with MovieFone, Caro said the film would be ‘a big, girly martial arts epic’.

She said: ‘It will be extremely muscular and thrilling and entertaining and moving.

But she added: ‘From what I understand, no songs right now, much to the horror of my children.’
